Looking in here from Germany … hi there.
We have the same problems with low cost jobs. Our so-called low unemployment is a myth. 7 million of our 40 million or so employed are in so-called Minijobs, paying between 400 and 600 Euros per month for a full time job. There is insurance on top and housing benefits to give people minimum protection but it is nothing much to live on. And this in “the most successful economy in Europe”. The funny bit is that these “reforms” making us so competitive were started by Schröder, a socialist chancellor.
You are right, Doug, they are all the same up there and in the end things will only change if we, the people, send them packing.
Have a nice day.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/501b35f9eab8ea256800000amore spinThu, 02 Aug 2012 22:22:49 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/501b35f9eab8ea256800000a
starting wage at chrysler was $20hr back in 1970 full benes, today it's $9hr no benes and they only hire temps, even less at toyota , not to mention billions in taxpayer handouts to lure these companies back (temporarily)http://www.businessinsider.com/c/501b06766bb3f7871b000010todddThu, 02 Aug 2012 19:00:06 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/501b06766bb3f7871b000010
LOL, we're stealing jobs from Europe and Japan. Should help the collapsing Euro.....collapse faster.
Electrolux CEO moved from Michigan to Mexico saying "no tax credits can compete with workers at $2/hr". Memphis don't get too comfy, you're just a mid-step on the way to Juarez.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/501aef636bb3f7ec6f000009globaldigitalThu, 02 Aug 2012 17:21:39 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/501aef636bb3f7ec6f000009
